Wow, Universal is a lot busier than MK was today...

Maybe the ixie: is finally wearing off.

Wow, you visited both parks?

I was at MK today and the wait times were all down compared to those. I didn't see anything close to 75 minutes wait time.

honestly there are few rides at MK that hit 75 minutes normally. Splash if it is hot, Thunder Mountain, Space, Peter Pan, and Mine Train are the only rides to ever get close or go over 75. Most MK rides sir around 40 minutes even in busy periods. Mainly because they have a lot of omni mover rides which eat people. It is all the lower capacity or insanely popular rides that have issues. Or at least when I have been to MK this is what I notice.

Hmmm... I wonder if Universal has plans for a classic omni mover ride... hmmm... :look:

WDW line times were fairly low for the summer on Saturday. On TP they came in at a low moderate level.

 

[Teebin]

Yoshi?

Alas, only guaranteed for Japan.

OK, maybe I could sacrifice ET. Argh, so torn. I like the plan of Yoshi being phase 2. I also like the idea of the great movie ride Uni style with the old properties.

 

[Teebin]

^ Yeah, as I said a page back, you want this.

Not saying attendance isn't down at MK, but there's far more rides at MK than, say, IOA. Especially non-water rides.

Yes, but it should also be getting twice the attendance of IOA as well

I think this is my favorite shot I've seen so far..

Finally made it to Kong. Wait time is showing 105 minutes. Opted for single rider which took 40 minutes. Ride cycled every 2:30.

Ride was great! Sat in the back left with Jinx as driver. Still nothing in the transition room. Tomorrow morning I will start with Hulk.

What do you mean about the transition room? I have yet to ride Kong, heading up this Friday from Ft. Lauderdale.

 

[Galaxy Defender]

If you are going to stand in a long line on a hot day please use deodorant. Someone in front of me forgot.

The transition is there. It's Kong climbing over the rock on the right and then following him through a cave hence why the screen slowly goes black as you move forward. It was the most effective when I was in row 6. When I was in the last row it felt like I was in the room for a little too long giving my eyes time to adjust and see the completely blank screens. There is no "transition room" as far as I could tell from my two rides. The transition is the end of the 360 scene.

Little over 1700 PPH. Compare this to Frozen which a friend times recently and found to be actually at 600 PPH
